Max/Min, Killers, & Clones / Max/Min, Mörder und Klone
(Published on 30. January 2022, 16:51 by PDN777)
Normal sudoku rules apply. Cells with arrows pointing outward must contain digits greater than all orthogonal cells. Cells with arrows pointing inward must contain digits less than all orthogonal cells. Digits in a cage must sum to the little number in the upper left, and may not repeat in the cage. Clones: cells which have the same (non-white, non-grey) color must contain the same digit. (There are 3 blue cells; 3 rose cells; 3 yellow cells, 3 green cells, and 2 maroon cells.) (Colors very close in CTC. Maroon in R6C5 and R8C2. Rose in R1C7, R7C9, and R9C4. ) I think this puzzle is 1.5 out of 5 stars for difficulty for many solvers. As always, comments welcome!
